[NLRS] June VHF Contest: New Analog Only operating category

[Mary Brown]

Sounds good! I find the digital modes to have no challenge... computer is doing the hard work... I like pulling that super weak barely there signal out by ear. The challenge of working hard for that contact... watching the computer do it is boring...

Subject: [NLRS] June VHF Contest: New Analog Only operating category

Hello NLRS land
Per the recent ARRL Contest Bulletin a new analog only subcategory has been added to the June VHF contest for the SOHP, SOLP, SO3B and SOP categories.  See the cut and paste from the bulletin below.  You still work a station only once per band regardless of mode (no change).  The new category is intended to address those contest participates who wish to use only SSB/CW allowing them to not have to compete with those who are also use digital modes (or perhaps only digital modes), plus it creates a category of contest stations that you can only worked by using SSB/CW.

New Categories Added to ARRL June VHF ContestParticipants in the Single Operator categories for the June VHF Contest can now enter in All Mode (which includes all digital modes) or Analog-Only (CW and SSB/FM) subcategories. The ARRL Programs and Services Committee, with guidance from the Contest Advisory Committee, has approved this rule change in response to the survey that was sent to participants of ARRL VHF contests late last year.
